| rmrfslash | I'm trying to do an upgrade here but getting a plasma-widget-networkmanagement: Depends: network-manager (>= 0.8~) but 0.7.1~rc4.1.cf199a964-0ubuntu2 is installed. | 03:08 |
| rmrfslash | Says to remove plasma-widget-networkmanagement | 03:09 |
| rmrfslash | and to downgrade plasma-widget-networkmanager | 03:09 |
| rmrfslash | what do I do | 03:09 |
| snarkster | anyone here | 03:22 |
| snarkster | id like to know your views on shareing the home folder with vista? | 03:22 |
| snarkster | wise or unwise | 03:22 |
| rmrfslash | I totally screwed myself up | 03:30 |
| rmrfslash | what is the network management thing called that is supposed to be in the system tray? | 03:30 |
| rmrfslash | I tried installing knetworkmanager but this doesn't look like the same thing I has | 03:31 |
| rmrfslash | *had | 03:31 |
| snarkster | knetworkmanager | 03:31 |
| rmrfslash | so I'm running knetworkmanager and it just says "knetworkmanager is not running" | 03:32 |
| rmrfslash | when I click on the systray icon | 03:32 |
| snarkster | hmm wow | 03:32 |
| snarkster | what did you do? | 03:32 |
| rmrfslash | eugh | 03:32 |
| snarkster | maybe you should try wicd | 03:33 |
| rmrfslash | I uninstalled a bunch of stuff because plasma-networkmanager was failing to upgrade | 03:33 |
| rmrfslash | :-/ | 03:33 |
| rmrfslash | kept saying the plasma-knetworkmanager thing needed network-manager 0.8 and I was on 0.7.1-rc1 or something like that | 03:34 |
| snarkster | yah karmic has issues with that I heard. | 03:34 |
| rmrfslash | I'm not using karmic | 03:34 |
| snarkster | i dumped it and went with wicd for the time being | 03:34 |
| rmrfslash | wicd? | 03:34 |
| snarkster | youll be happier with wicd anyway till all the kinks are worked out | 03:35 |
| snarkster | yah its a wireless manager thingy.. great stuff. | 03:35 |
| rmrfslash | might as well try it | 03:35 |
| rmrfslash | does it work w/ dsl | 03:35 |
| rmrfslash | i.e. usb modems | 03:35 |
| rmrfslash | not that dsl necessarily implies a usb modem. | 03:35 |
| snarkster | i really dont know | 03:36 |
| rmrfslash | ok... so I installed wicd | 03:36 |
| snarkster | i use it for wireless connections | 03:36 |
| snarkster | ok | 03:36 |
| rmrfslash | how do I even use it | 03:36 |
| snarkster | well it wont show up in the tray till a reboot but you can just run wicd | 03:36 |
| rmrfslash | i ran sudo wicd | 03:37 |
| rmrfslash | ps aux | grep wicd | 03:37 |
| rmrfslash | it's running | 03:37 |
| rmrfslash | (bunch of python scripts) | 03:37 |
| snarkster | you are in kde right? | 03:37 |
| rmrfslash | yes | 03:37 |
| rmrfslash | kde 4.3.2 | 03:37 |
| snarkster | ah then your in the karmic kde then | 03:38 |
| rmrfslash | no | 03:38 |
| rmrfslash | jaunty w/ kde 4.3.2 | 03:38 |
| snarkster | yah yah semantics.. this is the kde thats going to be on karmic. :P | 03:39 |
| snarkster | details details | 03:39 |
| rmrfslash | right | 03:39 |
| rmrfslash | :) | 03:39 |
| rmrfslash | I'm pretty upset that I just hosed my system like this. | 03:39 |
| rmrfslash | I need this thing for work | 03:40 |
| snarkster | anyway if you run wicd it should give you a menu of all the networks in your surrounding area that it can detect. | 03:40 |
| rmrfslash | i mean i guess i always have my trusty kppp | 03:40 |
| rmrfslash | I get nothing of the sort | 03:40 |
| rmrfslash | maybe I need to reboot | 03:40 |
| rmrfslash | why not. cya in a minute or so | 03:40 |
| * rmrfslash feels like he's on you-know-what | 03:41 | |
| === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk | ||
| === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates | ||
| rmrfslash | OK... so wicd came up but it doesn't edit resolv.conf (had to add the nameserver manually) | 03:47 |
| rmrfslash | At least it's a start | 03:48 |
| snarkster | thats strange | 03:48 |
| snarkster | worked perfectly for me | 03:48 |
| snarkster | but then again YMMV | 03:48 |
| rmrfslash | ? | 03:48 |
| rmrfslash | oh | 03:48 |
| rmrfslash | yeah. | 03:48 |
| rmrfslash | I just want the systray thing I had at one point | 03:49 |
| rmrfslash | that worked somewhat seamlessly | 03:49 |
| rmrfslash | but installing knetworkmanager didn't look the same | 03:49 |
| snarkster | yah its different in 4.3.2 | 03:50 |
| snarkster | is it working for you? | 03:50 |
| snarkster | did it work with your cell modem? | 03:51 |
| rmrfslash | didn't try | 03:51 |
| rmrfslash | oh... the networkmagaer thing? no. | 03:51 |
| rmrfslash | at one point back in the hardy days it did | 03:51 |
| rmrfslash | but it's since been done broke | 03:51 |
| rmrfslash | i need to reboot though. | 03:51 |
| rmrfslash | again | 03:51 |
| snarkster | i meant wicd | 03:51 |
| rmrfslash | oh | 03:51 |
| rmrfslash | I didn't try | 03:51 |
| FloodBotK2 | rmrfslash: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 03:51 |
| rmrfslash | ok ok.... | 03:52 |
| rmrfslash | I'm not flooding, I'm just typing my sentences one work per line... what the big deal? | 03:52 |
| rmrfslash | k, reboot | 03:52 |
| snarkster | after my update it would show my network but not connect to it.. I use this machine at school via wifi so had to have it up and running by monday morning.. | 03:53 |
| snarkster | wicd has not failed me yet. | 03:53 |
| === heHATEme is now known as vorian | ||

| charwood | Hello. I am having trouble running open gl programs. I'm on a new install and have installed the proprietary nvidia drivers. | 04:43 |
| charwood | When I try and run glxgears I get the error "NVIDIA: could not open the device file /dev/nvidiactl (Permission denied)." | 04:43 |
| charwood | Sure enough, /dev/nvidiactl is owned by root;video (crw-rw----). So I modified /etc/group so that my user is also in video. But this does not seem to have worked. | 04:44 |
| charwood | Do I need to log out or something to refresh my user's groups to the system? The groups command recognizes that my user is in the video group. | 04:45 |
| rmrfslash | Whoever I was talking to before about wicd.... I have reinstalled it. | 04:51 |
| rmrfslash | I would like for you to check though if your resolv.conf is a symlink to /etc/resolvconf/run/resolv.con | 04:51 |
| rmrfslash | f | 04:51 |
| rmrfslash | Or if anyone is uring wicd.... could you check this. | 04:53 |
| rmrfslash | I changed the DHCP client to dhcpd and it seems to work | 04:59 |
| rmrfslash | well enough at least | 04:59 |

| idyle | Hi everyone! For some reason, when my laptop goes out of standby, the monitor doesn't turn back on. I'm pretty sure it's all still running because music starts back up. How can I debug/fix this? | 05:47 |
| dwidmann | idyle: how long has it been going on? | 05:48 |
| idyle | dwidmann: forever, since first install -- I just work around it by shutting down when I'm packing up -- but it would be really nice to fix | 05:49 |
| dwidmann | idyle: I'm now sure how hard it will be to work around, burt my assumption is that the problem might be kernel related. | 05:50 |
| idyle | dwidmann: how can I begin diagnosing/fixing? | 05:51 |
| idyle | should I go into #linux and ask? | 05:51 |
| dwidmann | idyle: well, try downloading the one from Karmic and installing it | 05:51 |
| idyle | dwidmann: I am on karmic, but it was already happening when I was on jaunty too | 05:52 |
| dwidmann | ah, that's no fun. | 05:52 |
| idyle | Yeah.....I love karmic, but this problem's still here! (and some other ones, but I'm living with them until it's released) | 05:53 |
| idyle | Would #linux maybe be a good bet? | 05:53 |
| dwidmann | You can try that, the hardware & laptops section of ubuntuforums.org is also worth a shot | 05:53 |
| idyle | dwidmann: alright I'll check 'em out, thanks! | 05:54 |
| dwidmann | idyle: well, you could try blindly logging in on a tty, and running "xrandr --output LVDS --auto" | 06:02 |
| dwidmann | idyle: (yes, I mean running it blindly) | 06:02 |
| dwidmann | idyle: if it works, add it as a script to /etc/acpi/resume.d | 06:06 |
| dwidmann | idyle: oh, and don't forget to report the bug on http://bugs.launchpad.net | 06:06 |

| DarkriftX | I had an older version before I distupgraded and it worked fine | 09:23 |
| dwidmann | Balsaq: sudo grep driver /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 09:24 |
| dwidmann | Balsaq: no more, no less | 09:24 |
| DarkriftX | there has gotta be a way to find out why its crashing | 09:24 |
| DarkriftX | the stupid thing has gotta have logs somewhere | 09:24 |
| dwidmann | DarkriftX: grab the version from the intrepid repo? | 09:24 |
| Balsaq2 | oh teah.... | 09:24 |
| Balsaq2 | yup uh huh | 09:24 |
| Balsaq2 | tell me how do i keep this file in front of me so i can tell you about when every time i type to speak in here it minimizes? | 09:26 |
| dwidmann | DarkriftX: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/k/ktorrent/ | 09:26 |
| dwidmann | Balsaq: weird, I have no idea what would cause that | 09:26 |
| Balsaq2 | well says all kinds of stuff whaddya like to know | 09:27 |
| dwidmann | DarkriftX: and I'm thinking that would be 3.1.2 | 09:27 |
| dwidmann | Balsaq: anything related to 'vesa', 'radeon', 'ati', or 'fglrx' could be useful | 09:28 |
| DarkriftX | id really rather find why its crashing than trying to isntall other versions | 09:28 |
| Balsaq2 | ill write it all down and put it on display in about 3 minutes hang on | 09:28 |
| dwidmann | Balsaq: it's strange though, there really shouldn't be more than a few lines of output for that ... | 09:28 |
| Balsaq2 | the dominnat story is mach64 not using driver blaj blaj blah among other things | 09:29 |
| Balsaq2 | 1152x864 over and over seems to not like that | 09:30 |
| Balsaq2 | height too large for virtual...over and over | 09:30 |
| Balsaq2 | abi class x.org xinput driver drive 4.0 | 09:31 |
| dwidmann | Balsaq: and every last one of those lines had the word drive in them? (or is grep not doing its job?) | 09:31 |
| Balsaq2 | matched mach64 driver for the autoconfig driver | 09:31 |
| dwidmann | Balsaq: it looks like you're using the mach64 driver though | 09:32 |
| Balsaq2 | assign the driver to the xf86 cinfig layout | 09:32 |
| dwidmann | I can't attest to that drivers quality, performance, or lack thereof seeing as I've never had or even seen one | 09:33 |
| Balsaq2 | so i started trying to do that weird force fix thing and got as far as renaming the file and its on my desktop but a guy that was helping me then disappered at theend of it all | 09:33 |
| Balsaq2 | has to do with the master tar biz and all that | 09:34 |
| Balsaq2 | he said my monitor may freak cause we were gonna force it then he disappeared (Axess_Denied) was his name | 09:35 |
| Balsaq2 | he said he studied it for a few days and found me on here and we were sort of hot wiring the dadgim thing and poof he's gone | 09:35 |
| dwidmann | I'm not really sure what the two of you were going for, but half done usually doesn't work well | 09:35 |
| Balsaq2 | yup but it still all the same cause all we did was go to a site and make an icon on my desktop and rename it so far | 09:36 |
| dwidmann | What were the two of you shooting for with what you were doing? | 09:37 |
| Balsaq2 | the icon file is called... | 09:37 |
| Balsaq2 | xf86 master video r 128 tar bz2 | 09:37 |
| Balsaq2 | sound slike he was trying to fice better video performance somehow thru a site that provide thes files | 09:38 |
| Balsaq2 | force i mean | 09:38 |
| Balsaq2 | i have no idea what we were doing i am brand new to ubuntu and occasionally someone on here has taken a shot and i allow it cause this dell is 11 years old | 09:39 |
| Balsaq2 | is she blows so be it | 09:39 |
| dwidmann | Balsaq: IMO the best way to get better video performance is probably to change video cards to something less of an antique | 09:40 |
| Balsaq2 | well that was my idea and everyone said it wont work due to a 400mgz processor | 09:40 |
| Balsaq2 | so i called nvidia and told them i need and older card that works with 200watts and my mboard and they told me geforce fx 5200 128mb agp | 09:41 |
| Balsaq2 | and i founbd one | 09:41 |
| dwidmann | Balsaq:and? | 09:42 |
| Balsaq2 | and need all the driver support abd they said they got it but i havent bought it yet because everyone says im Pi**in in the wind | 09:42 |
| dwidmann | Balsaq: I'm not sure if they're right or not, but I can see where they'd get the idea from. | 09:42 |
| Balsaq2 | i know but i said many times it worked a couple weeks ago before i killed w98...so when i killed 98 i killed the drivers too | 09:43 |
| Balsaq2 | it actually still runs them at 50 -70 percent of the correct speed now just need to nudge it | 09:44 |
| Balsaq2 | even dell techs say it aint gonna happen | 09:44 |
| Balsaq2 | i still think it will but havent gamble with mula yet | 09:45 |
| Balsaq2 | luckily those cards are used all over rhe place | 09:45 |
| dwidmann | Balsaq: I'm thinking you might not even meet the minimum requirements for flash | 09:46 |
| Balsaq2 | see theres a new twist right there! i wonder how many i need to explore before i but it | 09:46 |
| DarkriftX | I have had nothing but problems since my distupgrade | 09:47 |
| Balsaq2 | before i buy it imeant | 09:47 |
| dwidmann | Balsaq: http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/systemreqs/ | 09:48 |
| DarkriftX | http://pastebin.com/dc3bc20c Anyone got any ideas for this one? kubuntu 9.04 | 09:48 |
| Balsaq2 | i had dell on the phoine for a couple hours more than once and they are just now starting to believe it is possible but noone has just mentioned that lil flash thing you said | 09:48 |
| dwidmann | Balsaq: well, that's the benefit of running things past many people I gues | 09:49 |
| dwidmann | *guess | 09:49 |
| Balsaq2 | wow that close i got 400mgz and 768sdram | 09:49 |
| Balsaq2 | might work? | 09:49 |
| Balsaq2 | what 50mgz between friends? | 09:49 |
| dwidmann | DarkriftX: try reinstalling the kubuntu-desktop package | 09:50 |
| dwidmann | Balsaq: 400 actually, look at the linux column | 09:50 |
| Balsaq2 | see dell once told me that i could only put 3 sticks of 128 sdram in my old xps...but i discovered they were saying that cause the 256 and 512 sticks werent invented at the time of testing.... | 09:51 |
| Balsaq2 | and my intel 440bx chipset has more capabilities than they knew to test for also | 09:51 |
| dwidmann | Balsaq: don't trust techs from folks like dell to be competent | 09:52 |
| Balsaq2 | i have 3 sticks of 256 in ther and have a funny feeling it may take some more | 09:52 |
| Balsaq2 | double what they said and it kept bessie alive no more a lot of years | 09:52 |
| Balsaq2 | seems like the ram just take over in the end | 09:52 |
| dwidmann | Balsaq: amazing how its still working relatively well for you | 09:53 |
| Balsaq2 | i can do this chat and ebay and check system monitor whicj is a pig at the same time on this boat anchor | 09:53 |
| Balsaq2 | is ee it it struggling but it bursts when it has to or something | 09:54 |
| dwidmann | Balsaq: you might be able to squeeze more speed out of it with something like Damn Small Linux if that's something that would interest you | 09:54 |
| Balsaq2 | funny if you go there you will see my name in ther right now | 09:55 |
| Balsaq2 | left the g4 on upstairs unless it timed out | 09:55 |
| Balsaq2 | justn discover it today | 09:55 |
| Balsaq2 | but i kike ubuntu | 09:55 |
| Balsaq2 | i got the puppy disc and xubuntu also | 09:56 |

| dwidmann | Balsaq: also give some lightweight window managers a try if you want, fluxbox is a good one of those | 09:57 |
| Balsaq2 | does that make the online vids fast? because otherwise this thing is fast, faster than when it was new with windows, just the vids are slow | 09:58 |
| Balsaq2 | prolly yhe dang flash thing...i mean iam off on the requirement...maybe i cn get an older flash? | 09:59 |
| dwidmann | Balsaq: maybe | 10:00 |
| dwidmann | Balsaq: you probably need a minimum of flash 8 if not flash 9 for most sites though | 10:00 |
| === david is now known as snaf | ||
| Balsaq2 | funny it ran before buntu though prolly at about 85-99 percent of true speed | 10:01 |
| Balsaq2 | was ggod enough though...was the one and only thing w98 did right | 10:01 |
| dwidmann | Balsaq: probably because the requirements for it running on windows 98 are lower | 10:01 |
| Balsaq2 | so that may help your smaller OS theory then | 10:02 |
| Balsaq2 | but anyway in about a week ill 2 good used businessmopliplex desktops to play with | 10:03 |
| dwidmann | Balsaq: okay, with regards to the video driver and video playback, what happens if you try to play a movie file? (non-flash) | 10:03 |
| Balsaq2 | never tried it?where do i go. idid see allady walikn across a stret on here on a commercial yesterday and it was about 80 percent then | 10:04 |
| Balsaq2 | tried hulu was slow again | 10:04 |
| Balsaq2 | is that what you mean | 10:05 |
| dwidmann | Balsaq: I mean, like a local file or something, (avi, wmv, mov, or something like that, or maybe a DVD) | 10:06 |
| Balsaq2 | could pop in a dvd i guess hang on | 10:06 |
| Balsaq2 | never tried that ... | 10:06 |
| Balsaq2 | good idea...its in there? | 10:08 |
| Balsaq2 | i heard the thing runnin but nothin on mty screen | 10:10 |
| Balsaq2 | its an external "backpack" dvd | 10:10 |
| Balsaq2 | the dell itself has the cd tray | 10:10 |
| Balsaq2 | prolly have to tell buntu about the dvd huh? | 10:10 |
| dwidmann | Balsaq: might | 10:11 |
| dwidmann | Balsaq: might also need the ability to decode it | 10:11 |

| mrvanes | In jaunty, plasma-widget-networkmanagement suddenly depends on network-manager >= 0.8 which is unavailable, is this known and being addressed? | 12:36 |
| nameiner | mrvanes: not here. Just ran an update and nothing changed, no updates available. | 12:40 |
| mrvanes | Ok, so it might be because of one of the PPA's I have listed | 12:41 |
| nameiner | but I also don't find plasma-widget-networkmanagement in my package list, only plasma-widget-networkmanager | 12:42 |
| nameiner | probably, because I don't have PPAs here on this machine. But I can check on my other machine where I have the KDE PPA in the list | 12:43 |
| mrvanes | nameiner: that widget is a bit messy at the moment, so I pulled it from ppa, but that is biting me now I gues... | 12:43 |
| mrvanes | nameiner: for this plasma I use http://ppa.launchpad.net/hermansson-per/ppa/ubuntu, I'll turn it off and see what happens | 12:44 |
| mrvanes | nameiner: thx for checking, I removed the ppa and the inconsistency is gone, now hope the original is up-to-speed | 12:51 |
| nameiner | mrvanes: on my laptop I have http://ppa.launchpad.net jaunty/main in my sources.list. That is for the latest KDE release. It doesn't complain about the widget either. | 12:51 |
| === m4v_ is now known as m4v | ||
| nameiner | mrvanes: I still use KNetworkManager since the widget warns me about its faultiness each time it starts. But KNetworkManager crashes each time the laptop wakes up from hilbernation *shrug | 12:55 |
| nameiner | I hope it gets better till Karmic is released | 12:56 |
| mrvanes | nameiner: Me too, but as far as I understand KnetworkManager is part of the plasmoid packages | 12:56 |
| mrvanes | nameiner: I don't suspend, so I don't experience the crashes | 12:56 |
| gunsofbrixton | how come konversation got dropped for quassel? I think I prefer konversation... | 12:56 |
| Nielsen | i always like pidgin and xchat, even in kubuntu | 12:58 |
| nameiner | mrvanes: I think it has something todo with wireless, I already send a bug report to the developer | 13:02 |
| mrvanes | nameiner: wireless is a big mess in KDE at the moment, but there are enough workarounds to keep working ;) | 13:03 |
| nameiner | mrvanes: yeah, at least the crash handler catches it and has a button to restart the application. It's still annoying. | 13:04 |
| mrvanes | nameiner: And when all else fails, I switch to wpa-supplicant and ifup wlan0 ;) works like a charm | 13:05 |
| mrvanes | nameiner: Anyway... my little package problem is solved and I'm crossing my fngers KNetworkManger still works on next login | 13:06 |
| nameiner | mrvanes: didn't need that trick yet. Well, if the package was not available the depending package should not have changed. | 13:08 |
| rmrfslash | So it wicd the recommended thing for network management now on kubuntu? | 13:15 |
| rmrfslash | the plasma network manager thing says to use knetworkmanager which indefinitely thinks my eth0 and wlan0 are "disconnected" but works wonderfully with my usb modem from verizon. wicd on the other hand is fine with the world when it comes to wlan and eth0 but has no usb modem support. | 13:17 |
| rmrfslash | I would file bugs for knetworkmanager, but it seems a little useless considering that it's only around until the plasma widget is cherried up. | 13:19 |
| rmrfslash | I suppose it doesn't take *too* much effort. | 13:19 |
| rmrfslash | Kubuntu should include a widget for filing bugs through launchpad. | 13:19 |
| rmrfslash | "Why don't you make one then" | 13:20 |
| rmrfslash | because I'm lazy. | 13:20 |

| balu | hy @all i got some noob question abou kubunto is somone willing to answer ??? | 16:27 |
| ubox | balu: give it a shot | 16:28 |
| balu | 1. i used debian before , i try to install things but cant finde a root account | 16:29 |
| ubox | have you enabled the root account? | 16:29 |
| ubox | and option for 'log in as root' should be in the user settings for root | 16:30 |
| balu | no i dont , did a workaround with sudo | 16:31 |
| Pici | sudo is not a workaround, its the proper way to get root priveleges on Ubuntu | 16:31 |
| Pici | !sudo | 16:31 |
| ubottu | sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 16:31 |
| ubox | ah, did you set a root password? you will not be able to actually login as root without enabling the account and setting a password | 16:31 |
| Laeborg-lap | hi | 16:32 |
| * Blizzerand waves at Laeborg-lap | 16:32 | |
| * ubox also waves | 16:32 | |
| * Blizzerand nods | 16:33 | |
| Laeborg-lap | i figured out how to get a PPTP server up and running on my desktop. When I connect to the server (trough OSX) i can't access the ethernet | 16:33 |
| balu | so in the *bunto debian world it is the philosophie to youse not root acount ?? | 16:33 |
| ubox | balu: by default. unless you enable it. i think it is to protect the average end user from breaking something accidentally | 16:34 |
| ubox | although balu, you should be able to install things like: sudo apt-get install packagename> | 16:36 |
| ubox | without root enabled | 16:36 |
| balu | ok i understand , so here ist the next one , how should i make updates | 16:37 |
| ubox | you mean, set them to automatic or not? | 16:38 |
| balu | because the k???? tool in the tray told me to update but the updates are blocked | 16:39 |
| ubox | oh, you probably need to enable repositories. i'm not sure about where this is in kde but in gnome it is in system settings > software sources | 16:40 |
| ubox | balu, see this article https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Repositories/Ubuntu?action=show&redirect=AddingRepositoriesHowto | 16:43 |
| balu | ubox:it seams i have everyting enabled exept sourcecode | 16:45 |
| ubox | hmm, so what is the actual error message you are getting? | 16:45 |
| Dragnslcr | balu- KPackageKit doesn't handle certain situations well. You need to use Konsole to do a dist-upgrade | 16:45 |
| Dragnslcr | apt-get dist-upgrade has worked for me, but I've seen people recommend using aptitude instead | 16:46 |
| balu | like apt-get upgrade ??? | 16:46 |
| genii | eg: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 16:47 |
| balu | genii: should i shoutdown kde for that or is it ok to make it in a terminal window ? | 16:49 |
| ubox | a terminal window is ok | 16:49 |
| genii | balu: Konsole window is fine. If it upgrades the kernel, then afterwards you require a reboot | 16:49 |
| bjb1959 | I installed 9.10 alpha 5 on an aspire one and compositing worked but after upgrade to beta 1 compositing stopped working. any ideas? | 16:51 |

| Bou | smellynoser: this? http://userbase.kde.org/Tutorials/TweakingPlasma | 16:58 |
| ubox | another panel? | 16:58 |
| smellynoser | When I add another panel, it will only go on top or bottom, it won't stick to the side | 16:59 |
| Bou | oh | 16:59 |
| Bou | there is a "screen edge" anchor you can use to drag it on a side | 16:59 |
| Bou | which version of KDE is it? | 16:59 |
| Bou | click the cashew on the new panel, then drag the "screen edge" thing if you see it | 17:00 |
| smellynoser | That's what I did | 17:01 |
| smellynoser | When I drag it to either side, it shows vaguely on the top | 17:01 |
| smellynoser | I'd get a screenshot but I just set the panel to full size, and it took over my screen so I right clicked and removed it and it's still there but unresponsive :) | 17:02 |

| Kohlrabi | Though I can do it via using vpnc directly. | 17:47 |
| Kohlrabi | Is this a known limitation of the network manager in KDE4? | 17:47 |

| genii | apparle: You downloaded the RPM or the source? Hopefully the source | 19:38 |
| apparle | Yes the source | 19:38 |
| apparle | Next what should I do | 19:38 |
| apparle | ./configure is not there | 19:38 |
| genii | apparle: So you untarred it already? | 19:39 |
| ubox | if there is no configure you should just make | 19:39 |
| apparle | genii: :) that much I can do | 19:39 |
| apparle | genii: Next I checked the install instructions and am not sure which directory should I provide for linux kernel headers | 19:40 |
| genii | Although in their instructions they want you to "login as root and untar". so this leads me to think it's a bunch of binaries that get untarred into system directories | 19:40 |
| apparle | genii: Go for the last tarball 2.07c although say its beta still its pretty stable. I have used it under windows | 19:41 |
| genii | apparle: /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.28-15-generic would be an example (in my case) | 19:42 |
| genii | the version number would come from uname -r | 19:42 |
| genii | Work requires me. | 19:43 |

| zappotek | Can anyone help me find the 'program files' type folder so i know where to stuff Mozilla Firefox, as I have recently converted from Windows and am still a bit of a newbie | 20:05 |
| ubox | just use apt-get, it will put it there for you. | 20:06 |
| ubox | sudo apt-get install mozilla-firefox | 20:06 |
| Dragnslcr | zappotek- when you install packages, everything will get put into the correct directories for you | 20:07 |
| Dragnslcr | zappotek- you shouldn't need to download installers at all, just use KPackageKit | 20:07 |
| zappotek | I just downloaded it of the website, thanks for the help! | 20:08 |
| ubox | np | 20:08 |
| Dragnslcr | Yeah, you don't need to download it from the Firefox site | 20:08 |
| Dragnslcr | If you want Firefox 3.5, install the firefox-3.5 package (which will be called Shiretoko in the K Menu, for reasons that you probably don't care about) | 20:09 |
| ubox | dragnslcr: i care, i have been wondering what's with that name | 20:09 |
| zappotek | ok | 20:09 |
| Dragnslcr | Basically, because 3.5 is considered a major upgrade from 3.0, the Ubuntu devs don't want to have the same name for what they consider two different programs | 20:10 |
| zappotek | That makes sense... | 20:11 |
| Dragnslcr | The "official" version of Firefox for Ubuntu 9.04 is 3.0, and they don't change major versions of programs in the middle of an Ubuntu version | 20:11 |
| Dragnslcr | For Ubuntu 9.10, "Firefox" will be 3.5 | 20:11 |
| ubox | so just in the meantime it has a different name? | 20:12 |
| Dragnslcr | It'll always be called Shiretoko in 9.04, but it'll change back to Firefox in 9.10 | 20:12 |
| ubox | now for the real trivia, what does shiretoko mean? | 20:13 |
| ubox | thanks for the info btw :) | 20:13 |
| serzholino | Anyone on karmic here? | 20:13 |
| Dragnslcr | Then if Firefox 4.0 comes out before April, Ubuntu 9.10 will call it something else | 20:13 |
| serzholino | Is it normal that i have no splash on boot | 20:13 |
| zappotek | i'm guessing its another language for fire fox | 20:13 |
| serzholino | only on shutdown... | 20:13 |
| Dragnslcr | I'm pretty sure Shiretoko was the project codename for Firefox 3.5, but I don't know offhand what it means | 20:14 |
| ubox | serzholino: i will be in about three hours. :) and you can set your splash in the system settings | 20:14 |
| Dragnslcr | Google probably knows | 20:14 |
| ubox | the advanced tab i think, from what i remember of using the livecd | 20:14 |
| ubox | i'll check dragnslcr | 20:14 |
| zappotek | good old google ^_^ | 20:14 |
| ubox | hmm, a peninsula in japan | 20:15 |
| ubox | i love google | 20:15 |
| serzholino | ubox: i have similar situation http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3106832.0 | 20:16 |
| zappotek | now go to a translator, and type in shiretoko japanese-english | 20:16 |
| serzholino | i only see kxsplash, not usplash on boot | 20:16 |
| serzholino | but kxsplash apears after quite some timeand only for about 10 secnds | 20:17 |
| serzholino | and bfore kxsplash appears there is black screen with boot log | 20:17 |
| ubox | hmm, that is strange. did you upgrade or freshly install? when i try the 64 bit live cd i get both splash with animation | 20:17 |
| ubox | dragnslcr: http://translate.google.com/translate?js=y&prev=_t&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Ffr.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FShiretoko&sl=fr&tl=en&history_state0= | 20:17 |

| serzholino | ubox: upgrade from 9.04 | 20:18 |
| serzholino | yes, on livecd all is fine | 20:18 |
| ubox | serzholino: might i suggest a backup and fresh install? that is what i would try. | 20:18 |

| kristijan | hi, does anyone know why kde works perfectly except when I alt tab between windows? it takes up to 5 seconds for the switcher to show, and then it's fast and responsive, but those 5 seconds are really tedious | 22:30 |
